xarc vs atomptr vs numalloc
Side-by-side comparison of Rust crates

xarc
growingv0.3.0
`xarc` provides atomically swappable atomically refcounted smart pointers as a safer building block for lockfree algorithms than raw atomic pointers. `Xarc` is comparable to `Arc` but with the additional ability to atomically be swapped into and out of `AtomicXarc`. `Xarc` is dereferenceable but cannot have its contents atomically swapped. `AtomicXarc` can have its contents atomically swapped but is not dereferenceable.

atomptr
growingv3.2.0
A safe copy-on-write wrapper around `AtomicPtr` with some extra tricks
49
numalloc
experimentalv0.1.2
A blazing-fast, NUMA-aware memory allocator written in pure Rust
